Twilight Toastmasters
Twilight talkers is an informal toastmasters club. We stick to the toastmasters concept, but focus on having fun! A good meeting is a meeting with many laughs. Read our latest newsletters to get an impression of our club. The club is fully run by the clubmembers. Almost every clubmember has a small task within the club which ranges from opening the meetings, to picking up some snacks for the break.
